, Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 176,871, dated May 2, 1876; application filed March 21, 1876.

" following is a specification In the accompanying drawing, Figurel represents a side'view, and Fig. 2 a vertical central section, of my improved stove-pipe supporter online 0 c, Fig. l; and- Fig. 3, a detail top view, showing connection of pipe-holding ring with suspension-block.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts. v

My invention relates to 'an improved stovepipe supporter, by which stove-pipes may be readily suspended from the ceiling or support ed on the walls; and the'invention consists of stove-pipe-eiicircling rlng that is applied to a recessed block having a fixed wire rod with threaded end.

In the drawing, A represents the wire ring that encircles the stove-pipe, and is attached,

byoutward ly-bent and parallel ends, to a key B, that fits into a dovetail or other recess, a,

otl gthe suspension-block G, forming a'loop with positioninto the recess without requiring any ing cast or otherwise applied to a wire rod,

I), of such length as is required for supporting the stove-pipe at suitable distance from the ceiling or wall. The wire rodD is screwed by its threaded end into one of the joists of v the ceiling or wall.

The stove-pipe is readily put up by slipping the wire rings over the-pipe, and placing the loop or key into the recessed block, which is secured by its rod to the ceiling or wall. By

detaching-the rings from the blocks the pipe is quickly takeu down and removed;

Having thus described .my invention, I

claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Paten t- A stove-pipe supporter having its ring and screw A D connected by a double T- shaped key, B, and hollow open-sided block 0, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
